Norwegian prodigy Martin Odegaard plays down Liverpool speculation

Norwegian youngster Martin Odegaard dismisses talk linking him with Liverpool.

Norway youngster Martin Odegaard has played down speculation linking him with a move to Liverpool.

The 15-year-old attacking midfielder, who plays his club football for Stromsgodset, recently made his senior international debut and is widely regarded as one of the brightest talents in Europe.

While he admits that Liverpool are his "dream club", the teenager is not ruling out the possibility of joining another side when he eventually leaves Stromsgodset.

"Liverpool have always been my dream club," he told Sport Bild. "But I will not let this affect my decision when I choose a new club. It's all about finding the team that is best for me and for my development. That is not necessarily Liverpool."

Odegaard has previously trained with Bayern Munich and Manchester United.
